Influence of walking on knee ligament response in car-to-pedestrian collisions
Pedestrians are likely to experience walking before accidents. The walking process imposes cyclic loading on knee ligaments and increases knee joint temperature. Both cyclic loading and temperature affect the material properties of ligaments, which further influence the risk of ligament injury. Howe...
